Chapter 6

Yang and Weiss were out walking the streets of Vale and had recently stopped by the café to see Ruby and Hinami, when they arrived they were told by Hinami and Jaune that Touka had taken Ruby out to train, Yang was a bit worried as was Weiss but Jaune and Hinami didn't seem too be bothered by it.

They were walking around the corner a few streets down when they heard Touka shout, "Wait what? Get offa me!" Yang and Weiss rushed around the corner and saw Ruby hugging Touka, she seemed rather annoyed by Ruby and from what Yang could see Weiss looked a little jealous,

Yang gave Weiss a teasing smile "What's the matter ice queen you jealous?"

Weiss turned to glare at Yang and then they heard Ruby shout "Weiss!" Not long after that a red blur slammed into Weiss and sent her flying onto her back as Ruby hugged her, "What are you guys doing here?" she sounded curious and excited,

Yang gave a short laugh as she answered, "Well Hinami and Jaune told us you were training with Touka and we went to check it out, so anyways where were you two going?"

Touka answered with a shrug "Toa should have her mask done by now and should be starting yours unless there's another Ghoul customer" she looked to Weiss "I am guessing you two would like to tag along?"

Weiss stopped in thought for a moment then nodded, "Alright, I don't see why not" she glanced at Ruby then Yang who had smiles plastered across their faces, "So Ruby what did you learn in your training?"

Touka grinned evilly as Ruby answered, "I got to learn how to use my Kagune, it is a red tentacle looking thing and I can heal fast too" Weiss and Yang looked at Ruby then Touka who was laughing at their expression's "I am not good at using it so I may need to learn how to use it more but Touka's gonna be too busy to help me with it"

Weiss looked at Touka then Ruby "If you like I could help you with it" Ruby nodded happily "Ok so what do you need help learning?"

Ruby's expression turned to a thoughtful one as she answered, "Mainly to fight with it, I am starting to get good at blocking and using it to pull myself back and away from an attack but it all needs work" she frowned at the memory of Touka using one of her attempts to dodge to hit her hard, and rolled up her sleeve to see the bruise she had start to fade away,

Yang and Weiss both saw her purple burse fade away in seconds and stared wide eyed as Ruby just looked a bit less surprised, Yang turned her attention to Touka "Did you hurt Ruby?"

Touka let out a long drawn out breath before turning to face Yang "She's a Ghoul now, she can heal faster than humans and since she is a Rinkaku Ghoul type which is the fast healing one, stack that up with her already ridiculous healing factor as a half-Ghoul, because of all that I didn't have to hold back as much as I was earlier"

Yang and Weiss looked at Touka with confusion "What is a Rinkaku?"

Ruby answered in a matter-of-fact tone, "It's an Rc type, which means depending on where the kakuhou is on you back will give you a certain Kagune" she looked to Touka who nodded "Would you guys like me to show you back at the dorm?"

Weiss nodded with a smile and Yang answered excitedly, "Hell yeah! That would be awesome."

They arrived outside the shop and Touka looked back to the group "Alright quiet down" she knocked on the door and in seconds Toa appeared "Hey I am here for Ruby's mask" Toa looked behind Touka and saw Ruby with Weiss and Yang,

She smiled "Oh hey your just in time I finished it a few hours ago, yours will have to wait for a few more days" Yang nodded back happily then Toa looked to Weiss, "Hmm a Schnee this far out, what reason do you have to be out here?"

Weiss looked at Toa then said, "My reasons are my own" Toa gave Weiss a taunting smirk as she readied an insult,

But before things could go further Touka glared at Toa then Weiss, "Toa don't piss her off and Weiss calm down she can be a bitch when it comes to people she doesn't know well or well… in your case your family"

Toa glared back at Touka then huffed in annoyance, Ruby followed Toa into the shop after hearing she had to go in anyway, "Thanks Toa for ya know making my mask" Toa smiled back at Ruby and handed it to her.

The mask was an upper face mask like she and Yang had asked, the shape was of a wolfs upper head but it was black and red, the red was a massive line going down from the top of the mask down to the nose in the middle of the line on the forehead was a Rose and it had three streaks going from the middle of the cheeks out to the edge of the mask,

(Not the best description I know but if you want a better on just look at the cover picture for this FanFic.)

Ruby looked at the mask then back to Toa with a smile "Thanks Toa!"

Toa returned a warm smile to Ruby then looked at the others "Ok I am busy now so may I ask you to show yourself out" Ruby smiled and dashed out the door as she put her mask in her pocket, the others followed not long after. Ruby Weiss and Yang parted ways with Touka as they headed towards the air docks and the three were talking about what Ruby had learned to anyone passing by it would sound like she was just talking about Ghouls.

When Ruby Weiss and Yang were all back at Beacon, they headed towards the dorms and that was when they saw professor Ozpin walking out from the dorms, "Good evening girls, I would hope your day has been productive?" he asked as he had noticed Ruby looked like she had been out killing Grimm all day,

Ruby nodded with a smile as she said, "Yes we have sir"

Ozpin then started to look at Ruby's eye then his gaze shifted to the eyepatch she wore, the three of them noticed this and got a bit worried "Ms Rose, I have noticed you have been going to a coffee shop very frequently lately… so I was wondering would you recommend a coffee from there?" Yang stared at Ozpin dumbfounded as did Weiss but Ruby just felt relieved by what he had asked,

She nodded with a smile "I would they are really good"

Ozpin nodded and let a small smile show, "Well I will have to give them a look when I have the chance thank you Ms Rose, now I had best be off I will see you girls later"

The three of them looked at Ozpin's figure retreating which was now out of ear shot, Ruby asked with fear quite evident in her voice "Do you think he knows?"

Yang looked at the both of them then said, "No, I don't think he does"

Weiss then added worriedly, "But we should be careful, we wouldn't want him to figure it out" Ruby and Yang nodded as the three of them continued to their dorm room.

Once they entered the room Blake lowered her book and looked up from her bed "Hey you three are here kinda late?"

Yang nodded as she said, "We got side tracked a bit"

Ruby then got everyone's attention in the room "Anyways Blake I wanted to show you guys what Touka helped me with earlier today!"

Blake looked to Ruby with a curious gaze then to Yang hoping she would answer, Yang's head snapped towards Ruby as she exclaimed "Wait that's right she showed you how to use that thing!"

Ruby then looked to Blake nervously "Would you guys like to see it?" Blake nodded slowly, Ruby focused on the muscles she had to use and tensed for a moment, slowly but surely enough Ruby's single tentacle began to form,

Blake looked a bit surprised but Yang and Weiss had a look of amazement when they saw it, "Wow sis that's awesome!"

Ruby smiled at the praise, she then looked over her team, "So um guys as I have said to you two earlier, I still need to learn how to use it but Touka's gonna be too busy to help me so I am gonna need help"

Blake immediately asked, "What about that Hinami girl? She's a Ghoul so she should be able to help"

Ruby frowned as she answered her raven-haired teammate "Hinami is also busy around that time"

Weiss spoke up with confidence "I am sure I can help you with it, what is it you would like us to help you with again?"

Ruby answered nervously "I need to spar with someone, thanks Weiss"

It was at this moment that someone opened the door to team RWBY's dorm and all of them turned their heads to see Jaune, he looked at Ruby and saw her Kagune, "So Ruby why do you have that out in here?" he asked as he entered and closed the door,

"Oh, uh I wanted to show them it, and I need help learning how to use it in a fight"

Jaune looked at them and said, "Well then I'll help, your Kagune will pretty much ignore most if not all Aura, so you're more likely to hurt them compared to me"

Ruby looked at Weiss apologetically as she heard that and nodded to Jaune, "Thanks Jaune, I am glad you came in when you did…. but wait why did you come in without knocking?"

Jaune realised that mistake instantly and looked at them apologetically, "Sorry I wasn't thinking clearly, but at least I saved someone's life"

Weiss asked curiously "And how did you save a life?"

He looked at her then answered in a matter-of-fact tone "Well I would guess you or Yang offered to help Ruby with her Kagune?"

Weiss nodded with a frown but relaxed when Jaune rested his hand on her shoulder reassuringly, "Well um… th-thanks Jaune"

He smiled back at her as Ruby trapped them both in a hug, but once Jaune broke out he almost yelled "Holy shit Ruby, you're just as bad as Yang!" Weiss nodded in agreement,

Ruby looked at them both sheepishly remembering what being on the receiving end of those were like "Sorry, I just got excited. Oh yeah that's right I have my mask, I'm gonna try it on!" she reached into her pocket pulling out the leather mask and put it on,

Weiss Yang and Blake all looked impressed with it and Jaune smiled "Looks good on you"

Ruby's smile showed as she looked at Jaune "Thanks, I love it, it looks so cool!"

Jaune's smile turned to a frown "Hey Ruby I know how this might sound but you may wanna wear that cloak a bit less"

Ruby frowned when she heard that and turned to face Jaune "But why?"

Jaune looked at Ruby with a saddened expression as he answered, "If the Doves see you using your Kagune or eating or something like that it will make their jobs twelve times easier" Ruby nodded sadly as she heard that,

"R-right I understand, thanks Jaune"

Yang rested her hand on Ruby's shoulder reassuringly "Don't worry Rubes, it will be fine, when we're out on missions you can wear it, I mean you're not gonna be able to use your Ghoul thingy on the bad guys" Ruby's smile returned as she heard that and nodded,

Blake spoke up for the first time since Jaune had entered the room, "So Jaune why did you come in here anyways?"

He looked at Blake then answered, "Well Touka's birthday is coming up and I wanted to invite you guys to the party"

Ruby's smile grew as she said, "Oh yeah, Weiss Hinami asked me to help her with her gift but it involved a song, she can't sing well but she asked if I could, so I was wondering if I didn't do well would you be able to?"

Weiss smiled and nodded "Sure, if it's to help you out than I would love to"

Yang turned to Jaune and asked, "Yeah I would like to go; do you know what kinda things Touka likes?"

Jaune nodded with slight hesitance "Kinda, why?"

Yang's smile brightened "I would like to get her a present"

Jaune's smile grew as he heard the answer "Well she likes Dustcycles, fighting I am not sure what else she finds fun though, mainly because she hides that stuff" Yang nodded with a smile the rest of the night was all small talk and nothing important and before long they had turned in for the night.

Two days had passed since then and Ruby was at Re with Hinami Nora and Jaune planning the party, "Ok Ruby, that was really good, I think you will be able to sing the song, now Jaune who else is coming?"

Jaune looked up "Well all of my team and team RWBY are going, that's all I can think of unless you had a few people you invited" Hinami looked to Ruby and received a nod in return,

"Alright then, Ruby thanks again for doing this for me"

Ruby's smile grew as she heard Hinami "You don't need to thank me, I am always happy to help"

Jaune looked over to Nora sitting in the background, "Nora how's the order looking?"

Nora looked over to Jaune "It's looking alright, we just need food and drinks for Pyrrah, Ren, Weiss, Blake and Yang, after we get that we should be fine!"

Hinami smiled then looked to Ruby, "What foods and drinks would you recommend?"

Ruby smiled as she remembered some of the parties she went to when she was younger "Chips, chocolates, pizza's, hotdogs, pies, strawberry sunrises and soft drinks. That's the kinda stuff I'd see at a lot of party's"

Hinami nodded whilst Nora wrote down the list, but everything seemed to stop as someone knocked on the door and Touka said from the other side "Hinami Weiss is here to help you guys with that project of yours, would you like me to let her in?"

Hinami's reply was instantaneous "Yes thank you" within seconds Ruby hid everything as Hinami walked to the door,

She opened the door and Weiss walked in with a smile, "Hello Hinami, it's good seeing you again" Hinami nodded with a smile in response,

Touka looked into the room "Hey Ruby you look a bit exhausted would you like me to make you a coffee, but it will cost you" Ruby nodded unable to answer with how out of breath she was,

Once Touka was down stairs Hinami turned around and saw everything hidden "What did you do?"

Weiss answered knowing Ruby was unable to "She over used her semblance to hide everything"

Hinami looked at Ruby then everything on the table around the corner, "Oh" was all she said as she now properly understood what had just happened,

Touka walked back into the room with a coffee and handed it to Ruby "Thanks Touka" she flashed a smile to Ruby for only a second before the smile faded,

"It's all good, you guys are helping Hinami, as long as it's something like that I am happy" Weiss smiled as she heard the words Touka had said,

Weiss then began to wonder something and asked "Hey Touka is it ok if I ask you and Hinami something?"

Touka and Hinami both said in unison "Go ahead"

"Well with the way you two act, I've only seen two other people act that way, are you sister's?"

Touka and Hinami looked at each other and began to laugh, "No we are not, at least not by blood but I do see Hinami as one" Hinami nodded in response, Touka then asked back "Why do you ask?"

Weiss smiled "Oh well you two just act that way with each other and you don't look alike so I was just curious"

Touka nodded with a smile and began walking out, "Talk to you guys later, but Ark, Valkyrie soon it's gonna be busy so I will need help down stairs in a bit" Jaune and Nora both gave a nod and she was gone,

Jaune looked over to Hinami then Ruby and Weiss, "Sorry but we're gonna have to get ready to put this stuff away and work on it later"

Hinami nodded then looked over to Ruby, "Hey Ruby I have the lyrics sheet over here, just have a look over and try to memories it" Ruby took the sheets of paper and began to read them,

Weiss looked over Ruby's shoulder and read over the lyrics "This is great Hinami, and you wrote it by yourself?" Hinami looked over to Weiss then nodded as her cheeks turned a bright red,

Ruby looked over to Weiss, "Hey Weiss I don't think I can sing all of this by myself would you be able to sing parts of it with me?" Weiss' smile grew as she nodded, "Cool so um Hinami do you mind if I write mine and Weiss' name above parts to the song?"

Hinami looked over to Ruby with a smile "Sure, I hope all this goes well"

Ruby walked over to Hinami then rested her hand on her shoulder causing Hinami to look at her, "Hinami it's gonna be fine me and Weiss just gotta learn the song and hear the music Jaune made on the computer then we should be able to get it right and all will be fine"

Hinami hugged Ruby back which surprised everyone in the room, "Thanks Ruby".

An hour later Ruby and Weiss were leaving Re with a copy of the music file and the lyrics sheet, as they were about to reach the air docks Ruby saw something that unnerved her, "Hey Weiss hold onto this stuff for me" Weiss nodded taking the pieces of paper and following Ruby, Ruby began walking closer to the air docks but took an unexpected turn following someone, she was following a man who looked well built his hair was white and braided on the left side he was wearing a reddish jacket that he kept almost completely zipped up and sleeves rolled up to his elbows his jeans were loose dark navy-blue with a belt. Other notable accessories include the black belts of fabric he used as handwraps that go from his hand to his forearm.

They were following him for a few minutes before he stopped and began talking to someone else who sounded frightened, Ruby and Weiss rounded the corner and Ruby saw him again, "HEY YOU!" she shouted, the man turned around and the first thing Weiss noticed were that his eyes weren't normal,

He laughed "Oh it's you, looks like you even brought a friend this time, does this mean I can finish you off?" Ruby glared back and told the person behind him to run, Ruby then pulled out her mask and put it on, "Wait what are you even trying t-?" he didn't finish as Ruby formed her Kagune,

"Now were on even terms, you won't eat me"

he looked at her with wide eyes, "B-but how? Your a Human!"

Ruby lunged at him and he jumped up dodging her attack and went to stab her back but her Kagune came around blocking his attempt at hitting her from the behind, she turned around and kicked him in the solar plexus and stabbed her Kagune through him, "FUCK!" he screamed in pain then Ruby threw him to the walls of the alleyway,

"How does it feel? Being stabbed like that, I remember quite clearly how much it hurt, so tell me is it fun?" she asked tauntingly

He looked towards her and growled "You bitch! I will have your head for that, y-you yo-you freak!" Ruby glared as he lunged at her, forcing Ruby to use her Kagune as a shield and block his Kagune, the two clashed and as he was flying past she punched his face stopping him from moving on further then kneed him hitting solar plexus, as he was yet again out of air Ruby stabbed her Kagune through him and pinned him to the wall,

She began punching him but stopped as she yelled, "WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME!?" he smirked then spat in her face, Ruby glared and began the beating again,

Weiss watched in horror as Ruby continually beat the Ghoul who had attacked her a few months ago, Weiss knew she needed to do something and went to run back to Re but before she could even turn around Touka had landed next to Ruby and caught her fist before it hit him again, "What are you doing?" Touka asked in a stern tone,

Ruby looked at him then her, "He attacked me when I was Human, he is the reason I am what I am"

Touka's expression softened as she heard that and then she glared at the Ghoul, "Tell us what you did to her and you had better tell the truth" Touka demanded, he looked at Touka then Ruby and gave in,

"I-I didn't do anything all I did was take a few bites out of her before her friends came along. I told you what you wanted now let me go!" Ruby and Touka both looked to each other before Ruby released her Kagune, he fell to the ground and ran past Weiss,

Ruby had only just noticed Weiss was standing there watching the whole event and took off her mask, "W-Weiss I am sorry you had to see that. I-I hope you aren't angry or scared?" Touka frowned as she heard how scared Ruby sounded then looked to Weiss with hope,

Weiss shook her head and gave a small smile you could tell she was terrified but she tried to ignore that, "I-I am a l-little but I-I am s-sure I'll be fine" Touka's frown turned to a smile as she saw how hard Weiss was trying to get past it,

"Ruby Weiss would you two like me to walk you to your airship?" Ruby and Weiss both nodded and they began their walk in silence.

An hour later and the two entered their dorm with Blake and Yang waiting, Yang immediately saw the look on both their faces and asked, "What happened?"

Ruby lowered her head in shame and climbed onto her bunk, whilst Weiss took a deep breath and said in a levelled tone "R-Ruby found the Ghoul that attacked her" Blake's and Yang's head snapped towards her with shock and wide eyes, "W-when she found him she used her Kagune to stab him and pin him to a wall, then she punched him and asked what he had done to her, when he didn't answer she kept punching him until Touka came in and stopped her"

Yang looked up to Ruby's bunk and slowly approached, when she was next to the bed she stood on a stool to reach up, "Ruby are yo-you ok?" Ruby's Kagune came out from under the blanket and pushed Yang away making the blonde brawler fall on her ass,

"I-I don't want t-to talk leave m-me alone" Ruby sounded as if she was crying and the Kagune slid back under the blanket,

After a few seconds, Yang's scroll was receiving a call, Blake looked at it and saw Touka's name? "Yang it's Touka" after she heard that she rushed straight to the scroll and answered it,

"Hello?" she waited for Touka to finish talking and smiled "Ok I'll let her know thanks" after that she hung up and looked to Ruby, "Ruby I need to tell you something so please come out" Ruby sat up and looked at Yang with tear stains going down the sides of her face, "Touka told me you can have tomorrow off and you should rest but she also told me we need to talk with you about it ok?" Ruby nodded and turned to face them before Yang continued "Ok good, now can you tell me why you attacked him like that?"

Ruby frowned as she tried to answer, "I-I. He-" she stopped herself for a moment and took a deep breath before answering, "I don't know I just felt so angry when I saw him and I-I lost control" Yang slowly walked over and sat on the bed then hugged her sister,

"It's ok, you did a good thing, Touka told me to also let you know that you shouldn't worry he was one of the bad Ghoul's around Vale, she also said something like 'if he thinks he turned you into a Half-Ghoul he will be more careful so it doesn't bite him in the ass like you did"

Ruby didn't care about any of that she didn't care if it was a good thing, she attacked someone! Ever since Yang had begun talking Ruby had been crying into her shoulder. After a few minutes, she slowly looked up and all Yang could see was fear in her sisters' eyes, "Y-Yang please don't l-leave me alone I-I don't want you to l-leave me" she began to sob,

Once Weiss heard those words leave Ruby's lip she used a glyph to launch herself up onto the bunkbed and next to the cloaked half-Ghoul and pulled her into a hug, "Ruby I know Yang would never leave you and I know I won't. We are here for you, it's ok" once Ruby felt Weiss' arms wrap around her she pulled Weiss in close and gave a small smile,

"T-thank you, Y-Yang. T-thank yo-you We-Weiss" Blake frowned when she saw that she hadn't done anything to do with helping calm her leader down, once Ruby had calmed down and broke off the hug she saw the frown Blake had and jumped off the bed and hugged Blake "Y-you don't need to say a-anything Blake, I'd understand if y-you weren't sure about it"

Blake hugged Ruby back as she said, "I am with you, it's just I don't know what I could do to help you, Weiss and Yang seem to know what they are doing, but me I don't know anything"

Ruby smiled lightly as she attempted to comfort the Faunus in hiding "It's ok Blake I understand, I'm not upset with you" Blake smiled and looked to Yang and Weiss who also seemed happier knowing that the Half-Ghoul was starting to get back to her old self.

Waking up the next day Ruby slowly sat up in her bed and noticed that for once she was the first one up, she slid off of her bed and went straight to the dresser to get a fresh pair of clothes and head to the shower in her dorm, once she closed the door and locked it she began getting undressed and as she removed her clothes she grew curious, Ruby walked over to the sink and cabinet and grabbed a razor, she lowered her Aura and held her palm out and tried to cut through the centre, but instead of cutting her hand the thin blade broke in half as it made contact with her skin,

"Guess there is something good to it" she said as she turned around and turned on the shower, as she began cleaning herself she heard a loud thump in the room and turned off the water waiting for a moment,

once she heard Yang yell "I'm ok!" she turned the water back on and continued with her shower.

Once she was finished and leaving the bathroom she saw Yang laying on the floor with her blanket and was asleep yet again, once she looked towards her own bed she saw Weiss looking down at Yang then up at her, Ruby shrugged and put her clothes in the basket at the back corner, Weiss looked back at Yang "Morning"

Ruby smiled "Morning Weiss, you have a good sleep?"

Weiss frowned when she looked at Ruby then the floor, "Not really but I'd rather not talk about it, did you?"

Ruby frowned as well "Not really, had a nightmare about yesterday, I am sorry for that"

Weiss' head snapped up to meet Ruby's gaze and she smiled warmly "You don't need to apologize, I understand it's hard for you" Ruby's smile brightened,

"Hey Weiss where did you leave Hinami's song?"

Weiss looked around for a moment "On the desk" Ruby ran over and began to read and sort through it.

Twenty minutes later and Ruby had sorted out when she and Weiss would sing the song, "Weiss I think I finally got it and know my parts"

Weiss looked at Ruby with a smile "Well I am glad to see you are taking this seriously, I guess I better read it and get my parts memorized"

Ruby nodded and went to the door, "Would you like me to get you anything?"

Weiss nodded "A coffee would be nice thank you",

Ruby exited her dorm and bumped into Pyrrah, "Oh hey Pyrrah what are you up to?"

Pyrrah looked back to Ruby and let a small smile show "Hello, I was just going to get some breakfast, would you like to join me?"

"Yeah, it's been a while since we've talked plus I am getting Weiss some food"

Pyrrah nodded as she looked at the younger girl "It has, so how are you and Weiss?"

Ruby looked confused for a second but then remembered that one day "Oh well things are fine now, what about your team?"

Pyrrah's smile faded a bit "Well they are around a lot less, but when they are around things are good, Ren and Nora seem to be going out a lot. But Jaune, he seems pretty busy between working at Re and being here, I just hope things calm down for him soon"

Ruby nodded with a smile then noticed how Pyrrah looked a bit down and formed an idea "I hope so too. So you excited for the party?"

Her plan seemed to work as Pyrrah looked happier from the mention of the event, "Yes I am, do you know who's going to be there?"

Ruby nodded "Yup all of team RWBY's gonna be there, so other than that and your team it's mainly the other people Touka and Hinami know"

Once they entered the cafeteria Ruby walked over to the table piled with food and grabbed a plate of pancakes with strawberries and two cups of coffee, Pyrrah looked confused as she saw Ruby only holding one plate and two cups "What's wrong aren't you going to eat?"

Ruby shook her head with a fake smile, luckily she pulled it off "No I am just not that hungry, Weiss asked if I could get her something to eat whilst I grabbed a coffee"

Pyrrah looked at her with even more confusion "When do you ever drink coffee?"

Ruby looked at Pyrrah calmly trying not to panic and find a way out, "I just had a busy night last night and I am still tired" that seemed to satisfy Pyrrah as they continued to walk down the hall,

Ruby looked over to her right and saw Cardin picking on yet another Faunus and glared, Pyrrah saw what she was looking at and quickly got her attention away from it "What are you going to give Touka? I know she does well with hiding the things she finds fun"

Ruby smiled as she heard that "I kinda found a scrapyard filled with all kinds of things a while ago and I heard she enjoys Dustcycles so I thought I would make her one"

Pyrrah's eyes went wide as she looked at Ruby "Wait you're building her a Dustcycle?" Ruby nodded with a large grin from the praise she was now receiving "Wow, I was just going to get her a bag of special coffee beans"

Ruby smiled as she heard that "She would still enjoy that, I am sure of it" Ruby's smile began to fade when she looked to the plate and other coffee she had gotten for Weiss, "Well I better get back to Weiss" Pyrrah nodded and with a wave Ruby was off.

As she entered the dorm she saw Weiss was still reading the papers and hadn't even noticed she walked in, "Hey Weiss I got you the coffee and some food" Weiss turned around with a smile and accepted it happily,

"Thank you, Ruby, I know my parts now so it should go well"

"Cool, this should be great!"

Weiss smiled at her enthusiasm "You really are looking forward to this, aren't you?"

Ruby nodded with an ever-growing grin "Of course I am! Hinami needs my help and I want to do what I can"

Just as Ruby finished her sentence the two heard someone yawning and looked down to Yang, Yang now awake decided to sit up and looked around the room, once she realised she was on the floor she looked to Blake's bed and saw no one, she looked to her right and saw both her sister and Weiss staring at her "Morning"

Ruby and Weiss said in unison "Morning"

Yang looked at them then asked, "How did I get on the floor?"

Ruby answered with a shit eating grin, "While I was in the shower I did hear a loud noise then not long after that you shouted, 'I am ok'" Yang looked at Weiss who nodded,

Yang now looking surprised asked, "Did I really fall out of bed?" Ruby and Weiss nodded again "Wow, ok where's Blake?"

Ruby and Weiss shrugged "Not sure she may be at the library or something"

Yang nodded with a smile "Thanks sis" then ran to the dresser and got changed before running out of the room.

Meanwhile on another part of the academy Ozpin looked down to his computer with a passive expression "But if it is then it would explain why she healed so quickly"

Qrow let out an exhausted sigh as he said, "Look Oz I don't think she has discovered them yet, I mean hell Summer only found out about them because she was forced to watch her family die"

Ozpin now frowning nodded "Yes, I do remember, but being the survivor to a Ghoul attack can be just as stressful and traumatizing"

"Alright Oz I know Tai is against it but if you believe that's the reason you can tell her, but if you're wrong you're gonna be dragging her and maybe her team into this too and they won't even be able to do anything"

Ozpin sounded disheartened as he said, "I understand the risks of telling Ruby about it, but we have to take that chance soon, not now but soon"

Qrow sounded a little annoyed as he answered back "Alright but just remember what we talked about, so anyways is my niece and her girlfriend gonna be able to join me in camping?"

Ozpin nodded as he answered, "Well I may have to convince her father but I do owe you a favour"

Qrow began laughing as he said, "Oh, thanks Oz, trying to get out of it, are ya?"

Ozpin answered with no signs of amusement, "Now why would I do that old friend you know me better than that"

"Yeah, I know you all too well, well I'll talk with you later old friend"

Qrow ended the call and Ozpin leaned back into his chair he looked to his computer and saw the necklace that sat near it, "I promised you nothing would happen to her"

Moments later Glynda walked through the door "Ozpin, did you talk with Qrow yet?" Ozpin nodded but remained silent, "Well what did he say?"

Ozpin now looking at Glynda answered, "He said it's my call to tell her, but I don't think we should just yet, as much as I want to Qrow did bring up some valid points"

Glynda arched any eyebrow "If you don't mind me asking what reasons did he give?"

Ozpin let out a sigh he knew the reasons even before Qrow had told him but he had hoped the seasoned Huntsman may have given him more options in this, "Well if I tell Ms Rose then she and her team may be dragged into this too, we could also be wrong and risk her not discovering it at all"

Glynda now frowning asked, "So what do we do?"

"I don't know Glynda I truly do not know."

Ruby and Weiss entered Re and as they stepped through the door they noticed someone talking with Touka who seemed either pissed off or annoyed, "No Nishiki, now you can either order a coffee or leave"

The man now known as Nishiki turned around and noticed both Ruby and Weiss looking at him confusedly, he began sniffing for some unknown reason as he stared at them then he looked to Ruby's eyepatch and turned back to Touka gesturing towards Ruby "Care to explain or do I need to go ask Hinami instead?"

Touka looked at the two then back "Ruby, Weiss head upstairs I will be there in a moment, Nishiki you can follow me up, Ark get out here!" she yelled into the kitchen "I need to handle something you're at the register" he nodded and moved to where he had now been stationed,

Touka and Nishiki both walked up the stairs and into the break room "Alright Touka care to explain?"

Touka opened the door with both Ruby and Weiss waiting, then turned back to him and said "Nishiki this is Ruby and-"

Nishiki cut her off with a sneer "And Wiess Schnee heiress to the freakin SDC, so what do I owe the honour?" He finished sarcastically,

Touka glared at him as she continued "As I was saying Ruby has been in a similar situation to Kaneki and I have been helping her"

Nishiki spoke up electing another glare from Touka "Similar how did she get turned into a half Ghoul? I can smell it and the eyepatch is a dead giveaway"

Touka answered with a serious tone "She was attacked by a Ghoul but unlike Kaneki she didn't get an organ transplant, we don't know how it happened"

Nishiki looked back to the two "It doesn't explain what the fucking heiress is doing here!"

Touka went to retort but Weiss spoke up first "Look I don't know who you think you are but you have no right to question me and truthfully I don't think we should even be telling you any of this-"

before she could finish both his eyes changed and he cut her off "Now why don't you listen here, I don't know what daddy's been telling you but I don't give a shit, you're not up in Atlas anymore you're in Vale, daddy isn't here to protect his little angel now is he? Let me guess you wanna grow up and be like your big sister the so called 'hero' of the family, one of the few Humans who have killed thousands of us!"

he took a step towards Weiss but Ruby stepped in "Hey don't talk to her like that, if you have a problem with her you can take it on with me" he smirked and launched his Kagune at her, Ruby used her Kagune to block and strike back but then Touka stepped in and slammed her fist into the back of Nishiki's head,

"ENOUGH! You, if you have nothing better to do then why don't you get out and don't be so reckless she may have known, but what if she didn't!? You risked all of us just by letting her see your eyes!" he glared back and walked out of the room "AND DON'T YOU DARE THINK OF COMING BACK!" Ruby looked to Touka then Weiss, Touka turned around and faced them "Sorry he can be a real pain in the ass when he wants to be"

Ruby smiled as she said, "It's ok, as long as he doesn't do anything to you guys or my team I don't care"

Touka smiled and chuckled as she said, "You really are something."

A few hours later and the group had done everything that needed to be done, Jaune spoke up "Ok so the party's tomorrow you and Weiss will sing Hinami's song at some point there will be food and drinks for the humans attending and it's after the café closes. Anything I miss?"

"Touka's presents!" Ruby reminded childishly,

"Right that too, ok so what do we do now?"

Weiss looked at her scroll "We still have another twenty minutes before we can leave, would you like to grab a coffee?" She looked to Ruby as she finished and the two walked down the stairs,

they entered the main area and Touka was talking to a tall man with silver hair and light brown eyes wearing an overcoat, Touka gave him a friendly smile "Well thanks, would you like anything?"

he answered plainly "No"

Ruby and Weiss walked over and he took notice but said nothing, "Oh hey you two, can I get you anything?" her smile still present and genuine,

Ruby nodded slightly nervous with the man still watching her, "Just another coffee thanks" Touka nodded and looked at Weiss questioningly and received a nod in return,

Once Touka walked into the kitchen he spoke, "She seems to like you"

Ruby looked at him and rubbed the back of her neck nervously "Uh yeah everyone keeps saying that?"

he nodded and looked to Weiss, "You aren't by any chance Weiss Schnee?"

Weiss nodded just as nervous as her girlfriend "I am, is there something I can help you with?"

He shook his head "No just curious" Weiss nodded with uncertainty,

Soon enough Touka was walking out of the kitchen and noticed the awkward air between the three, "Here you two go, oh um Weiss Ruby the is Renji Yomo, Yomo this is Ruby Rose and Weiss Schnee"

Ruby held her hand out nervously "I-it's nice to meet you"

he reached out and shook her hand "Likewise"

Weiss smiled understanding he wasn't much of a people person and yet he tried, "It's nice to meet you Mr Yomo"

He let a small smile show as he said back, "You can just call me Yomo" Weiss nodded,

Touka smiled again but once Ruby and Weiss had moved off to a table her expression turned to a serious one "Anyways Yomo you said earlier that something was coming?"

Yomo looked to her with a nod "Yes something similar to the eleventh Ward back in Atlas" Touka looked a bit worried so he reassured "Don't worry I already took the time to plan"

Touka looked to Ruby and Weiss with a worried expression, she leaned in closer to Yomo "She is a lot like him, do you think she can handle this?"

Yomo nodded after a moment "Yes, but something bad will happen, and we both know it"

Touka nodded as she looked at the two sitting at one of the tables, "That's what I am afraid of."

Hey guys so the end of another chapter and a good one at that, I was honestly surprised I could even write something like this.

But yeah anyways I want to know what you guys think so please give me the feedback I need to improve and I want to see if you guys can guess what's going to happen in the next chapter or better yet if you can guess what's going to happen soon.

Also I want to involve you guys in this, (I am still stuck at chapter 15 and working to get further with the story) So I would like you guys to try and make an OC and send them to me on the twitter account I am sure I have mentioned before and if I haven't it's also on my profile, I will at some point add them into this I'm not sure when though.

So yeah hopefully I keep doing well with this, so please follow, favorite and reveiw, I'll see you in the next chapter.
